YES ANOTHER R9 290X CRASHING THREAD.

 

The reason is I am looking for an opinion on if my last thing I plan on doing will work.

 

I have googled and googled and googled so hard to stop this from happening.

 

This is my story:

 

My motherboard went out ( MSI 970A-G43) so I ordered a new one instead of RMAing because I hate waiting. (MSI 760GMA-P34(FX))

I ordered a new graphics card (Sapphire Radeon R9 290X Tri-X OC)

I put in the card install drivers it works fine then BAM freezes then restarts.

 

I have looked up every reason and possible fix and have tried all but changing the mobo. Also I have read that 700 and 800 series AMD motherboard do not agree with the R9 series cards.

 

So I was wondering would it most likely work if I RMA my 970 mobo?

 

And no its not the PSU or other hardware issues, I have swapped out all but the CPU and mobo.

 

Thanks for the advice!

Your mobo is fine and why did you say "Another R9 290X Crashing thread"? The 290x rarely has crashes...

Also how many watts is your psu?

did you download the omega drivers

yes I downloaded the drivers, even tried beta ones. I tried uninstall all drivers and using MSI Afterburner and enabling/disabling certain features. I even tried underclocking to as low as it will go. Also my PSU is 600 Watts which is actually enough to run everything.

this means there is an issue with power delivery

it can either be your motherboard or your PSU that is causing it

 

what PSU are you using?
